Potty Training Day One: Becoming One with the Potty
As many of you know, I have struggled with how to start potty-training Will. I've been putting it off because I was nervous, worried, and sometimes just plain lazy. Well today I decided to go ahead and give it a try. I thought it would be good to start by giving Will a chance to get used to sitting on the potty without the pressure of actually doing anything. So I brought the potty seat out to the living room, plopped him down in front of a movie, and told him that if he sat on the seat for 10 minutes that I would give him 5 M&M's. It looks like the reward system might actually work with him. It's going to be a slow process, but at least we made a little bit of progress today. More to come later.
